Parade Sets Theme For Safety Month' Results of a careless attitude' toward safety were graphically shown in the Jaycees-sponsored ,.--. Safety Month parade Saturday morning.

Though silver was and is. associated with gracious liv- ing, the work of the silversmiths was of great economic import- ance to early Canada. Thus, John Langdon intro- duced his lecture 'History of the Silversmiths in Canada", at the meeting on May first of the Oshawa and District Historical Society. Mr, Langdon hag stu- died this subject for over 30 years and has examined more than 800 pieces of silver as background for his book "Cana- dian Silversmiths and Their Marks 1667-1867". Mr. Langdon's topic, basically of great interest, was given added meaning by being paral- leled with the history of the | country. At the time of the early silver- smiths, early 1700, the country was settled in a narrow strip along the St. Lawrence River. The use of silver other than coinage was. chiefly for church vessels. But by an impressive Ss e a don said that the chief source of trade silver for this entire continent was in Quebec in these early days. These silversmiths developed the reputation for very thin silver with a high polish which was attractive to the Indians. In 1783, with a new influx of settlers, came the golden era for the Canadian silversmith. It was a period of great economic growth with lumbering and fur trade expanding. Mr. Langdon told of Paul Lambert, the first native-born silversmith and showed a pic- ture of a ciborium made by him. This ciborium is Mr. Lang- don's most recent gift to the Royal Ontario Museum, SLIDES SHOWN Among the other slides shown were fine examples of early church silver, an _ extensive range of early spoons, a 17th century ring, earrings which the Indians bought for their squaws. The trade crosses, 160-170 years old, were most interesting. The last picture was a beauti- list of silver belongings to the Intendent Bigot were: soup tureens, coffee pot, tablespoons, platters, egg cup, four enamel-} led knives with silver blades. A description of a Canadian tihome in 1750 mentioned the fork and spoon by the plate, but each person provided his own knife sometimes suspended around his neck. These were usually clasp knives and the ladies often had knives with mother-of-pearl handles. |CONCENTRATED IN QUEBEC When Cornwallis came to Halifax he had three silver- smiths among the tradesmen on board ship, But the craft was really concentrated in Quebec in the 18th century, It was of |utmost importance in trade. Often after a period of trade the silver was melted down and made into spoons or jewelry by the silversmiths, then some- times remelted and fashioned back into trade silver when the | District brought pieces of silver to the meeting for Mr. Langdon to ful water pitcher good design and decoration used by these early silversmiths. After showing his pictures, Langdon closed by saying that we are fortunate to have these treasures from the past for much silver, as well as many Kreigh paintings, were lost: to this country when the soldiers of England. the garrison went back to This craft has contributed to both the economic and social life of the country and Mr. Langdon's on this continent and. abroad has preserved this knowledge for us. : extensive research Anumber of the Oshawa and Historical members identify.
